My dog is running out lose right now with other dogs in a pack. He cried all day yesterday to go run lose, and he got lose just a while ago. My uncle said most likely theres a female dog around that's in heat. He was telling me they'll fight over the girl dog. Should I be worried that my dog is in danger?
My dogs jump at the fence and bark at the neighbors' dogs, and their dogs do the same to outs, and it drives me crazy! It's also dangerous. My dogs are small/medium (34 lbs and 14 lbs) but the neighbors have huge Goldern Retrievers and a really vicious-looking pit bull type terrier. My dogs are a whippet and a 14 lb jack russell-type mixed terrier. Shock collars are not an option for use on our dogs. Please help! thanks.
How can I get my dog to act like a normal dog when he meets other dogs? He runs up to them and starts barking and running round them, occasionally trying to bite them. I got him from a rescue home a few months ago and he still hasn't changed. He's a Jack russel cross but he doesn't nip or anything. I just want him to behave like a normal dog when he's around other dogs.
I walk him in a nearby field and let him of the leash. He's also neutered.
We have a dog that is about 9 months old. she hasnt had much interaction with other dogs so we are trying to socialize her with my dogs which aregood with other dogs. What is the right way to introduce her to them? how can we help her trust other dogs?
I've never understood this- why do some dogs automatically think to jump up onto something when a human pats their hand on the object?
Why do people automatically assume the dog will do it (some dogs do not)? Why do we "pat the seat" to entice a dog to sit in a certain spot?
I know caffeen is bad for dogs, but my dog loves the smell of coffee. She goes nuts when I come home with a cup of Dunkin!! I was wondering if it would be a problem if I baked her some plain dog cookies using a cup or so of decaffinated coffee in place of water? I guess the overall amount would be on cup of decaffinated coffee split up amongst 40 - 50 cookies. Thanks!
My roomate and I both just got dogs. I got mine, a blue heeler, about a week or two before he got his yellow lab. My blue heeler went after his dog right away but seemed to calm down that night. We went to bed, my dog escaped my makeshift pen and when I woke up they were both hanging out downstairs no problem. They are usually ok with each other but when I bring my dog in from a walk he always goes berzerk. It happens every single time that when he comes in he goes right after the lab. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The first couple times the lab was right at the door and I attributed it to the surprise. The last few though he's been visible but on the other side of the house.
My mom has allergies to dog & cat dander, but we want to get a dog. What dogs would be okay to get?
I just ask a question on what food dogs can't eat and there was a long list, practically almost everything.
I am planning to get a dog and want to know everything I can.
When she first meets a dog she automatically tries to establish dominance. If the other dog is submissive, things are fine, but at times she just doesn't get along with others–especially if it's an adult dog. Is there a way that I can be the dominant one and keep her from doing this with other dogs or do I just need to let the dogs work it out.
